I use Atlex. Not sure if best, but pretty good prices and fast shipping.

Atlex usually has the best prices I have found, and it is next day ground for me in SoCal ( they are in central CA).

usually I got cartridges from B&H or Newegg. For 3800, I am also checking on InkRepublic.com for the new 3800 refill system.

looks very promising and easy to use.

Another vendor which is worth a look. Reasonable shipping and fairly quick.

They do carry all cartridges for the 3800. Slightly lower prices. Been ordering from them for the last two years.

inkjetart.com is another reliable source i have been using. the only downside is you have to enter email address in order to receive a better price when you click on add to cart.

For 3800, I will be using inkrepublic 3800 i-refill system soon and i will let you guys know the result.

Atlex, and if you are near Seattle they have a distribution point in Tukwila which makes for about a two day turnaround.

I just used Atlex, shipped to the Boston area. Paid for regular shipping. Inks arrived the next business day. Paper I ordered at the same time, included in the shipping cost, has yet to arrive.

Oster, wow.. sounds great. If I buy 8 cartridges together at the same time, do I get volume discount? also do you guys carry refillable cartridge from InkRepublic? like this
http://www.inkrepublic.com/knowledgebase/3800-iRefill-faq.asp
or bulk ink bottles that have more than 80ml? I will start getting more projects in few weeks and would like to get my gear ready... Ive been thinking of saving on the earth by reinking myself, so I really prefer refillable cartridges.

Sorry it took so long - finally I have an answer for you: no, we do not sell the refillable cartridges, and we don't offer a better price when selling the complete set as we are normally priced as competitively as any other supplier. However, we will price match any other reputable retailer.

Tim's summary for a single cartridge is quite accurate but does not tell the whole story. The shipping on a single cartridge from PC Superstore is $8.00 but only increases to $8.52 for 8 tanks making the total cost for a single cartridge just over $ 45.00 which is still the lowest I've found when purchasing multiple tanks.

Brogala is right. When I was creating the quick summary, it was somewhat time consuming to add multiple cartridges for each of the stores and then figure out shipping for various quantities, but it looks like antonline has the lowest price for someone buying about 5 cartridges, as the total comes to 224.86 or a bit under $45/per, slightly lower than PCSuperstore.

However, I normally only buy one or two at a time as I run low. Also, shipping time can be important. Atlex ships from multiple locations and I can normally get my shipment in 1 to 2 days @ ground shipping rates, so if timeliness is important, that an extra dollar or two might be worthwhile. So, your "local" seller might be a bit higher, but can get you the ink quicker.
